    This list is good and representative. Products of these schools fare very well at world stage which is not common in many other schools. Its not just the academic results or the sports. Criteria should be producing a rounded individual.

  2. Morris says

    The top 17 schools in Zimbabwe are truly incredible, with a long history of academic excellence and producing some of the country’s most prominent leaders. However, it is worth mentioning that one of the oldest and most prestigious boarding schools in Zimbabwe, Dadaya High School, was not included in this list. This school has a rich legacy of shaping the minds and futures of countless students, including many who have gone on to become influential political and business leaders. In fact, even the former president of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe, was once a teacher at Dadaya High School. The school’s rigorous academic curriculum and emphasis on character development have undoubtedly played a crucial role in the success of its alumni. It is a testament to the school’s exceptional standards and dedication to nurturing well-rounded individuals. Thus, while the top 17 schools in Zimbabwe are undoubtedly worthy of commendation, it would be remiss not to recognize the significant contributions of Dadaya High School in shaping the nation’s future leaders.

    Watershed college is the best…because it’s socially academically and environmentally friendly

  7. alisha brown says

    I think Arundel should be first. Its an awesome school. Who’s with me? It wants 4 units ONLY at that school, so I think it produces ally A’s

  9. Auckland 101 says

    Education wise, Knowstics Academy knocks all of these A schools down in the private school category and I do not know why it is not up on that list

  12. eastview says

    Happy for the schools who have managed it before, but right now i think Knowstics academy will make it, and become the leading school from now onward

  13. eastview says

  16. soni kuri says

    girls high school harare in town is the best school it must be on top 10 also. i think it must come on the first number….

  17. Dreyfus says

    Its not about how nice the school is,or how much children pay for fees,but about the fact tHat we all learn and we get educated,that’s all that matters,my school isn’t there but I know one day it will

  18. PROUD ZRP FORMER STUDENT says

    zrp is the best its not as bad as people assume i am a pioneer of that school and i am proud to say so, you see people always say Heritage is the bestc etc but paying high fees is not the grounds you can say a school is the best. RESULTS are what define a school and i am proud to say of all the people i learnt with we are all doing great. THUMBS UP ZRP

    SO I WONDER IF BEST SCHOOLS ARE MADE BECAUSE PEOPLE PAY SO MUCH FEES OR BECAUSE THE SCHOOLS PRODUCE THE BEST RESULTS? HOWCOME WE NEVER GET TO SEE THESE SCHOOLS IN THE TOP TEN RESULTS ACHIEVERS??

  20. Thatt girl says

  21. Lola says

    This list is actual bullshit. In what world is Lomagundi college one of the best schools?? worse still, better than Dominican Convent, the oldest school in the country with a stellar reputation of producing the best academic results in the country, and a 100% Pass rate year after year. Girls College as well, great school. Where are the government schools? Kutama, St David’s Bonda, etc – great schools! far much better than some of these. Talking bout lomagundi number seven? please! Utter disgrace. SMH.

  24. Edwin says

    I stand to be guided. What is the criteria used to rank these school. If its in terms of results produced then there is a missing link

  30. Vic Apollo says

    I THINK SOME OF THE COMMENTS POSTED HERE ARE VERY IMMATURE AND UNNECESARY.. PLUS MOST OF THEM ARE COMMING FROM PEOPLE WHO CAN’T SPELL. WHAT DOES THAT SAY ABOUT YOUR SCHOOLS? PLEASE PEOPLE LET US RESPECT ONE ANOTHER..LOVING THE SCHOOL SPIRIT THOUGH :)#PROUD.DC(HRE).LADY

  38. Mrs. Juul says

    Well thank you to most of the above, clearly immature and rude posts. Your language and inability to type proper words states the obvious. I shall not be sending my children to any one of the schools you ridiculous immature, self absorbed, hypocrites happened to mention in your ‘F’ the world posts, simply because these said schools apparently do nothing for your education, language and respect levels! The schools that have been named top 10 have been done so for a reason. Deal with it!! Myself as a parent as stated above wouldn’t want to send my children to any school which would bring negative experiences to my children in any way, nor would I want my children to “hang out” with repulsive beings as yourselves! You are very disrespectful and should not think your parents or other would be proud of your statements and inability to be thankful for what you have and gracefully congratulate the schools that have done well!

  40. that dage!!!!!!!!!!! says

    to that Sebastian dude that’s complaining about abuse why didn’t you speak out then seriously the damage ahs been done the ppl are dead and gone!!!!!!!!!!!! and you can’t speak badly upon Catholics generally because of what specific catholics have done is everyone that goes to your church perfect????? is everyone that goes to church and “listens” to the word of God perfect too i don’t think so>?
